One enters the Southwood subdivision through a long private drive.  Currently, this community is not gated, yet offers the utmost in privacy and safety.  The homes were built from 1990 to 2001 and are all individual styles from various builders.  This is not a cookie-cutter community.  Home sizes range from 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom homes with 2 car garages of just under 1,700 square feet of living area to 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom homes of just under 3,000 sq. ft.

There are several ponds and creeks throughout Southwood and this community is mostly surrounded by either preserve lands or acreage.  There is no community pool or clubhouse so the HOA fees are a very reasonable $55.00 a month that was effective as of June 2024 and include trash and basic cable TV.  This is a pet-friendly community with no specific restrictions and rentals are also permitted. Though there are some magnificent nature trails through the preserve areas.

Southwood is a gem of a neighborhood and is little known to many Martin County residents.  There is very low turnover in this community so, if you’re interested, let us know and we can put you on a listing alert notification for this community.
